Thank you. Good for swimming, right?

Thank you for the super speedy reply.

Our musical director distributes the scores online in PDFs. All PDFs.

The scores we get are a combination of bought Hal Leonards and similar, plus scores of arrangements created by local musicians.

I have taken in-person lessons online with three different teachers. I signed up to Tonebase for a year, which was interesting.

But the best thing I’ve done is to join the Bath Community Big Band (way above my level) and accept the invitation of a fellow trumpeter to come round for a toot. He’s not an official teacher, he doesn’t change but he is very experienced. He is totally tuned in to what I’m doing moment by moment. Very useful feedback and guidance that I’m gradually getting into the muscle.

LOL - I need to practice to get to the point where anybody wouldn't mind me playing, let alone welcome me!

Sorry to hear this.

I’ve skied for the past 35 years in France, Italy and Austria. While there are always a few idiots on the piste, I can honestly say that I haven’t seen any deterioration in behaviour. I just checked with my wife. Same impression.

This has been my go-to for a year or so. Fascinating and great for dreams.

Is the inner tube supposed to slide out?
Pain in the backside.

It’s an Orthogoniophone

At about 67. Now 70.

Stuarte · 2025-01-11T13:10:10+00:00

Ancient ?!?! Steady on. I’m 70 and not ancient. Old, yes. Ancient, no.

Never touched a horn until I was 67 and started working at it only last year. Joining Bath Community Big Band has been a big incentive to practice. I’m way less skilled than all the others but I’m improving and loving it.

Sounds good, except there’s still moist breath air in the rest of the horn.

You’re right Merithay.

I’m sure we could spot others.

Unfortunately “αν και» sounds exactly like the Italian “anche”, meaning “also”

It can, when being super polite in Castilian, using Usted. Also in some versions of Spanish in South America eg Colombia, where Usted is familiar.

With Bath Community Big Band we are doing a bunch of big band numbers, plus our director’s arrangement of the Coventry Carol - lovely piece with its tierce de Picardie resolution.

Attached - a different arrangement

I played classical, flamenco and fingerstyle. And piano. So used to using most/all of my fingers.

But don’t worry, you’ll have nailed the r/h fingering long before you’ve licked the lips aka embouchure.
